The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

"Eh?!"

Is this already a done deal?!

Xia had no room to refute at all, because Xuefei had already jumped up happily and jumped into her arms. Holding her beloved, Xia had no intention of refutation or discussing the queen's decision.

While Xiabelis, Xuefei and the others were scrambling for the item, Herilite suddenly turned to Livra and smiled at her with her head tilted to one side.

"Princess Livra, now that you are in this position, you should be relieved."

"Ah... you mean... well,

That's right! Thank you very much, Your Majesty! Woohoo, actually, it doesn't matter if you don't consider me. "

"That won't work. You are also a friend that Xue Feiya can trust. As a mother, I have to show some appreciation."

"It's all thanks to you. Oh, this time I really got some help from Teacher Xia Ya."

"Hahaha, don't underestimate yourself. You are also an excellent child. Have more confidence."

"Yes! Thank you for your understanding!"

This conversation may sound a little confusing.

But Livra's smart head was able to understand it.

It seems that the queen is just rewarding Lord Xialet, but in fact, she is also giving the Kingdom of Orus a reassurance.

Previously, Xuefia also obtained the honorary title of Border Duke and concurrently served as the lord of the border fortress [Corutes] of the Kingdom of Orus. Afterwards, the King of Orus announced an alliance with the Demon Clan.

And now, the Demon Queen gave the Kingdom's heroes the same treatment.

This is equivalent to sending a friendly signal to Livra and once again emphasizing the sincerity of the cooperation between the two countries.

Of course, the demons will not disclose the identity of the hero. They will only say that this lord is Xia Halder, a child found by a branch of the demon royal family.

This is enough.

Livra is the third princess of the Kingdom of Orus and will most likely be the heir to the throne of Orus in the future. She knows the truth, so there is no need to explain anything to the subjects of the demon clan. It is enough to let Livra know the attitude of the demon clan leader.

Moreover, the border fortress of Orus [Corutes] and the border fortress of the Demon Territory [Lidkidu] are closely connected in terms of geographical location, separated by the national border. This is also a very meaningful arrangement.

The originally powerful demons didn't need to make any statement to Orus even if they wanted to cooperate, but the demon queen still chose to express her attitude.

Livra smiled foolishly, and the more she smiled, the sweeter she felt in her heart.

Hee... It’s so nice to follow Teacher Xia Ya.

When you go out, even your personality is respected!

71. Let’s not mention it!

Beautiful and prosperous, with clear wind and bright moon.

The night of the demon clan is bustling with stars that can be reflected on the land without the need for an ocean.

Normally, the royal city of Cambeno is relatively closed, with the city gates tightly shut, and people are not allowed to enter or leave at will. However, on the day of rewards for military exploits, the royal city will be open to travelers from surrounding countries. After the awarding ceremony, a free night market will be held, which is very lively.

"Don't miss it! It's a specialty of our demon clan! A small ornament carved from a six-winged stone! It will look great when you buy it and put it in your home! It can ward off evil spirits! It's not expensive! You can take it away for one magic gold coin!"

"Guests, come and have a look at our tavern? Oh, don't worry, our prices are fair, and the taste is the best in Campeno! If you don't try the Magic Crystal Lake Toad Soup that only our Demon Clan has, you'll be at a big loss!"

Nothing else, this land just carries a bustle.

On the outskirts of the royal city, rows of houses are almost invisible now. Mountains and plains are covered with flowers, grass and woods. There are field paths and vendors hawking their wares along the way. In the tavern beside the moonlit stream, ordinary people who are not nobles can raise their glasses to clink glasses and drink, chatting about everything under the sun. They talk about the Demon King's army's impressive battle records and the pride when accepting medals. They wave their hands and slap the table. Emotions are the best appetizer.

On the open lawn with no vendors or taverns, under the starry sky with gurgling water, there are also seats filled with local residents from the Demon Tribe and travelers from other races. They sit together in groups of three or four, looking up at the sky, expecting the Demon Tribe's annual grand performance that is about to take place at any time.

——Magic Fireworks Festival.

Seal all kinds of gorgeous fire magic into magic-sealing crystals in advance, and then arrange a huge number of magic-sealing crystals at designated positions. The fire magic sealed in them also has different styles and particularities.

At the same time, the magic sealed in it will be activated at the same time.

At that time, with the sky as the painting scroll and magic as the brush, a magnificent sky of fire will be drawn that will shock the world.

Anyone who has the conditions to travel to the Demon Territory will not miss this annual visual feast.

And in this dense crowd.

A few little cuties lowered their heads and hurried through the forest path, not stopping until they found a sparsely populated open space.

Among them, the black-haired loli standing in the middle looked around frantically, confirming that this place was quiet and suitable for watching the ceremony. After no one disturbed her, the black-haired loli's eyes flickered with light that was more spiritual than the stars in the sky.

"Great! We finally found a vacant site. Isn't there any vacant land here? Bellis, I won the bet, right? You said there was no vacant land at this time. This time, you owe me two fish again!"

"Okay, okay~ Fish is nothing, I owe myself to Sister Wang too, okay~"

"No, help quickly

Are you busy? You are just occupying a spot and waiting for others to come and grab the territory. "

There was no time to pay attention to Belis's fierce words. Xuefei, who had transformed into Xia mode, was busy taking out a huge rolled square carpet from the storage magic. She half-knelt on the ground and moved forward to unfold the carpet, covering the entire empty grassland.

This is the custom of the demon leader. Once you occupy a position, you have to make a mark to prove that you were there first.

It was not easy to find this open space. Xue Feiya and the others ran around the wilderness several times before they found it!

In fact, they can fully utilize their privileges and get the best position without discussing with anyone or looking for help.

But Xue Feiya would definitely not do that.

It's not that I think this is too ostentatious or anything.

But because...

Exposing my identity means I’ll have to give a speech soon!

She came to see the fireworks show just to see the show. She didn't want to stand on the podium stupidly and make life-wasting speeches while others were enjoying a good time, nor did she want to sit in the most eye-catching place.

So, this operation turned into a quiet lurking operation.

In order to conceal herself, Xue Fei reactivated the Xia Ya mode. No one in the demon clan recognized this black-haired loli image.

Originally, she wanted to give Bellis the same hairstyle as Xia Ya, but Bellis was stubborn. She said that she disdained to transform into the black hair common among humans and expressed strong protest and resistance to this proposal.

So, she kept her silver hair and wore a black cloak, hiding her silver hair under the hood as a disguise.

This is strange. Xuefei remembers that Bellis didn't dislike humans in the past. Could it be that some human made her feel particularly disgusted recently? I haven't been to the Kingdom of Orus recently. Is there no such person?

"Xia, what do you think?"

"I think... well, we should be as understanding as possible about other people's ill intentions. I have no objection to that."

"You talk so strangely."

Xia is easy to deal with, she just needs to stay in Xia mode.

Her silver hair was made to imitate the royal side branch, so it was different from Xue Fei's silver hair. This kind of silver hair was mixed with some gray and white, not pure silver. It was not uncommon among the common people, so it would not attract too much attention. Only the main bloodline of the Demon King's family had pure silver hair.

Although...it is unrealistic for this group of beautiful girls to act together without attracting attention.

"Ms. Xia Ya, Miss Xia Ya! Haha, you really are Miss Xia Ya this time. Are you sure there will be that fireworks show you mentioned? I have never seen such a novelty in my life! I am really looking forward to it!"

"Otherwise, if not, I wouldn't have come here. Livra, just sit still and wait. By the way, I haven't put the new fish fry into the lake yet. Uh... Salamander, you didn't eat my fish fry just now, did you?"

"Do I eat everything?! What do you think I am?"

I'm just kidding. I'm just taking precautions.

Everyone changed into clothes that were more convenient to move around in, except Dimani, who was still wearing her emerald green dress.

Don't ask, the answer is that she still doesn't have any other clothes.

I'll get her some later. It's not possible that she doesn't have her own wardrobe just because she's a salamander, right?

Xuefei deliberately drew a super large territory circle and stuck a wooden sign in the soil at the edge of the circle with "Whoever comes will beat whom" written on the sign.

After doing all this, she felt at ease and returned to the center of the circle, which meant that this viewing area was occupied by this domineering loli.

They took out the fruit juice drinks and various snacks and donuts that they had prepared long ago and placed them on the ground. They swung their little feet and waited patiently for the wonderful moment when the fireworks bloomed.

Speaking of the Spark Festival, it's a bit like the fireworks show that existed in Xuefei's previous life?

The effect is similar, but there is no gunpowder in this world, so it is naturally impossible for every household to set off fireworks as in the past. We can only use the fire magic in the magic crystal instead. In theory, it should be more convenient, but the cost of magic is high.

The fire magic sealed in the magic crystal is extremely lethal and is strictly controlled by the official departments of the demon clan. Such performances are rarely seen at other times, which makes this event so precious.

By the way...

"Bellis, why have you been blinking your big eyes at me since just now? Are you trying to show off that your eyes are bigger than mine? Actually, this is unfair. First of all, your face is bigger than mine, so of course your eyes are bigger too."

"Hmm... I see. This is the first time I've seen Sister Wang like this from such a close distance. Xia Ya mode... is also super cute." Bellis muttered, her eyes full of admiration and surprise.

"Really? Well, just take a quick look. Why are you getting so close? It's really hot."

"Of course I have to be more careful...Ah! Look! The firework magic show has begun!"

"where..

.! Hmm?! "

The moment Xue Fei wanted to turn around and look at the sky.

——But it was also covered by Bellis’s black hood.

Xue Feiya felt that her lips were as elastic as jelly, with the abnormal feeling of her teeth being knocked open by the jelly.

Under the hood, Xuefei's eyes widened in shock as she looked at Bellis's tender and flashing purple eyes at close range.

The kiss came suddenly, but ended just as quickly.

As Livra's lost voice sounded, Belis sat back in her original position, gurgling and laughing foolishly.

"Eh... Miss Bellis, where are you talking about? It's not there at all? Could it be that I missed it? Is the performance time so short?!"

"Oh, maybe I saw it wrong. It hasn't started yet. I guess we have to wait a little longer?"

"How can this be wrong?"

"do you have any opinion?"

"No...no!"

Xia also looked at the sky, but didn't see any fireworks. She turned around and saw Xuefei, for some reason, sitting there in a duck position, stunned, with her pupils trembling.

"Xue Fei, what's wrong?"

"I...she...you you you...! Hey! It's okay!"

"?"

Can you say this?

If I expose Bellis's surprise attack on the spot, she will take revenge on me tonight!

While everyone started talking about the fireworks festival again, Xue Feiya crawled over to Bellis's side, her black hair falling on her legs.

The angry black-haired ball lowered his voice to a low growl like a kitten.

"No...! What did you do all of a sudden? You scared me!"

"Are you scared?"

"Nonsense, isn't that a sure thing? If you want to kiss me, just kiss me. Why do you have to pry my teeth open all of a sudden... Tsk! That's treasonous!"

"Hehe... I have my reasons too. Maybe it's a kind of... 'can't live without' mentality?"

"Cannot be missing?"

Bellis was mysterious and deliberately circled her fingers in the air twice.

Then it reached Xia Ya mode, Xue Fei's lips.

"Because I haven't hugged my sister like this before~ My sister went to the Kingdom of Orus for a few months and left me, so she became 'Xia Ya'. If I don't take any action, it will seem that my sister doesn't belong to me in these few months, but is with that blonde monster... Oh, I can't stand that. So, my sister, you have to understand~"

"I was so angry, but I couldn't refute it. Damn it."

"And even if Sister Wang wants to hold you accountable, it doesn't make sense. After all, with Sister Wang's reaction speed, you could have avoided it just now, but you didn't. That means..."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Shut up! This topic is over! It's over! No one should talk about it! Don't mention it anymore!"

"Hehe, as long as Sister Wang doesn't blame me~"

72. Remember?

While waiting for the fireworks festival to begin, even when talking about other topics, Xue Feiya raised her sleeves and wiped her lips frantically. The movement almost left an afterimage. If her lips were not made of iron, sparks would probably have flowed.

Busy room.
